Jesus, I Am Resting, Resting
In The Joy Of What Thou Art;
I Am Finding Out The Greatness
Of Thy Loving Heart.
Thou Hast Bid Me Gaze Upon Thee,
As Thy Beauty Fills My Soul,
For By Thy Transforming Power,
Thou Hast Made Me Whole.

Jesus, I Am Resting, Resting,
In The Joy Of What Thou Art;
I Am Finding Out The Greatness
Of Thy Loving Heart.

O How Great Thy Loving Kindness,
Vaster, Broader Than The Sea!
O How Marvellous Thy Goodness
Lavished All On Me!
Yes, I Rest In Thee, Beloved,
Know What Wealth Of Grace Is Thine,
Know Thy Certainty Of Promise
And Have Made It Mine.

Simply Trusting Thee, Lord Jesus,
I Behold Thee As Thou Art,
And Thy Love, So Pure, So Changeless,
Satisfies My Heart;
Satisfies Its Deepest Longings,
Meets, Supplies Its Every Need,
Compasseth Me Round With Blessings:
Thine Is Love Indeed.

Ever Lift Thy Face Upon Me
As I Work And Wait For Thee;
Resting ‘Neath Thy Smile, Lord Jesus,
Earth’s Dark Shadows Flee.
Brightness Of My Father’s Glory,
Sunshine Of My Father’s Face,
Keep Me Ever Trusting, Resting,
Fill Me With Thy Grace.
